Birthday Month
You know most people say if I could just get through Christmas I will be doing good. Not me!! I don't know how we did this but 3 of my kids were born in February. Yep the shortest month of the year. The lucky ones are Amber (oldest), Grant (middle), and Rebekah (youngest). In that order and all one week apart. No kidding!!! Rebekah's is not until Sunday but since I have not blogged anything this month I thought I should get a head start.
Amber got to do the thing she loves for her birthday!! She rode her horse, Star, for the first time. She did such a great job getting her ready that Star did not even flinch when she got on!! I am so proud of her. She was on could nine. Best part? I got some awesome pictures out of it. :) Amber had a pretty good idea of what she was going to get for her birthday. I looked for about 6 weeks to find the right one. She asked for a blue Ipod nano. So I put the Ipod in my pocket and gave her a sack with a bunch of tissue paper in it. She pulled one piece out at a time. When she got to the bottom she took a look in the sack and all defeated like said, "It's empty". We all laughed and I said ooooppps I forgot it in my pocket. It was great. Enjoy the best pictures of her in a long time!!
We spent the day at my mom's for Grant's birthday (not by choice, I was still sick from my knee surgery). His cousins, all of them, came over and he got some boy time in. Unfortunately, Rebekah was home each time another component of Grant's present arrived. She so kindly shared the news. So he knew what he was getting also. He went through the motions to open presents but he was bored with it. I felt so bad. I will do better. He does thoroughly enjoy playing with his Gamecube though!! :) I am so glad I got my boy. He lightens most of my days and he tells me loves me all the time. According to him I am his most favorite mom in the world!! I'll take it!!!! :)
My heart swells with pride for my children! I love them so much and am so grateful I have them. This month is always a tough one for me, it reminds me all my babies are growing way too fast!
